Kazakhstan intends to attract at
least $150 billion in investment by 2029
Astana leads Kazakhstan in
attracting foreign capital investments into various investment projects. This
year, a special National Digital Investment Platform has been launched in the
country to comprehensively support investors. It covers around 700 projects
with a total value of nearly 32 trillion tenge. Kazakhstan’s strategic goal for
the next five years is to remain the main regional hub for investment
attraction.
«In the new investment cycle, we aim to attract $150 billion by 2029, namely $25-27 billion annually. Drawing on the experience of developed countries, we have created a set of recommendations for a quality implementation of the new cycle. Domestic production requires essential infrastructure. Thus, the Government has developed the National Infrastructure Plan until 2029, which involves implementing more than 200 major infrastructure projects, as instructed by the Head of State,» said Gabidulla Ospankulov, Chairman of the Investment Committee of the Kazakh Foreign Ministry.
